For sole traders, contractors & small business operators
Running a business shouldn’t mean running it alone.
Bonnar & Co brings business advice, day-to-day admin, client communication and purpose-built technology together in one place — with a human approach for the personal pressure that can come with going it alone.
What we do
Practical support across the business — and the person running it.
Bonnar & Co exists to take the operational weight off independent operators, without taking away their independence.
Business advice & planning
Straightforward, practical guidance for the decisions that matter — pricing, structure, growth, and the ones in between.
Administration & scheduling
Day-to-day admin and scheduling handled properly, so nothing falls through the cracks while you're doing the actual work.
Enquiry & client communication
Every enquiry brought into one place, profiled and organised — so new business doesn't get lost in a crowded inbox.
Advertising & marketing coordination
Online advertising and promotions coordinated and kept consistent, without you having to manage five platforms yourself.
Lifestyle guidance & accountability
Practical, non-judgemental support for the personal side of independent work — with a bit of accountability built in.
Wellbeing support
Help finding the right qualified support when the pressure of independent work gets personal, not just professional.
Technology
Purpose-built systems, not spreadsheets and sticky notes.
Bonnar & Co owns and operates its own technology, built specifically for independent operators and the people who support them.
Arcus Communication System
Enquiry handling, client communication and contractor CRM.
A premium SMS and email enquiry system. Incoming enquiries are brought into one communication workflow, profiled and organised into a dedicated CRM record for the relevant contractor or business — so nothing is left to a crowded inbox or a missed call.
LuxSafe
Check-ins and operational support for safety concerns.
A structured check-in system that gives independent operators a reliable safety net — clear protocols, discreet escalation pathways, and operational support when it's needed most.
Advertising Command Centre
Coordination of online advertising and marketing activity.
A central point of control for online advertising and marketing activity, so campaigns, listings and promotions stay coordinated and consistent across the platforms that matter.
